Gum bleaching is how dentists would try to remove gum pigmentation in the past — the keyword there being tried. Using painful lasers, dentists would literally burn away an entire layer of the gum tissue in the hopes of getting rid of the melanocytes (which produce pigment….) But here’s what we at Carousel Dental can offer you today that they couldn’t offer before: a safe, effective treatment with ZO® White Luxe®, our customized procedure using custom-made bleaching trays that give you lightening results without the pain or downtime of old-fashioned bleaching treatment.

Before And After Photos:

We were noticing a lot of clients coming in with gum bleaching, which is not something we normally see. What was happening was that the dentists would go in and literally burn away an entire layer of the gum tissue in the hopes of getting rid of the melanocytes (which produce pigment). This is why we created our new service: Gum Lightening Service.

Services Offered:

We offer a variety of services for those looking to remove gum pigmentation. We use the latest technology, so you can be sure that the treatments are safe and effective. Call today or fill out our online contact form for more information on our gum-lightening service!

Who Does This?

The best way to remove gum pigmentation is with a laser, but that wasn’t always an option. In the past, dentists would use painful lasers, which would literally burn away an entire layer of the gum tissue in the hopes of getting rid of melanocytes (which produce pigment). Yikes! That’s not how we do things at ____ _____.
We offer a more gentle method using sugar-free white strips that you apply for about 20 minutes every night. The strips have been approved by the FDA and are completely safe for all teeth colors and shades. It takes about 6 weeks for our clients to see their desired results, but it’s so worth it! Plus, this service is much cheaper than gum bleaching and doesn’t involve any surgery or crazy pain!

Risks And Rewards:

The risks and rewards of gum lightening service are as follows:
-This is a permanent change to your teeth. There’s no reversing it. -It’s expensive, both in terms of the cost of the procedure and the amount of time it takes. -It can cause irritation, burns, ulcers or scabs on the gums, and even tooth loss if done improperly.

Where Can I Get It Done?

Laser gum bleaching is a relatively new service that is only being offered by select dentists right now. If you’re interested in getting it done, the best way to find out if there’s a laser gum bleaching clinic near you would be to do some online research. You can also ask your dentist about it; they might know of one in your area or be able to refer you to someone else who does.

Other Ways To Whiten My Teeth?

In the past, dentists would use lasers to try and get rid of melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) in the gum tissue. This procedure was quite painful and damaging to the gum tissue. However, now there are other options for getting white teeth with just a trip to your dentist’s office. The best way to whiten teeth is by using a toothpaste containing hydrogen peroxide, says Dr. Brian Zelinski, DMD, or by using an over-the-counter whitening kit that’s been recommended by your dentist or dental hygienist.

You can also go for a whiter smile with fluoride treatments from your dentist, which can help slow down discoloration caused by fluoride stains. If you’re looking for ways to whiten teeth at home without the expense of going to see the dentist then you can take care of it with some well-known items from your kitchen cabinet! Products such as baking soda, lemon juice or even vinegar can help brighten up those pearly whites at home. There are also some natural toothpastes on the market that contain ingredients such as activated charcoal and clay which work wonders when it comes to removing stains from both food and drink
